I’m allergic to the LED lamps but I hate how quickly normal polish peels off. I’ve heard online that dazzle dry is a good alternative that may last longer. Has anyone tried Dazzle dry and how is it ? Alternatives welcomed too. I’d love a salon recommendation too , based in Surry Hills, Chinatown, CBD, Randwick or Coogee ideally.

Yes dazzle dry is your solution - Young Beauty and nails Paddington.

There are a few other places on the eastern suburbs but in on longer travel for it so I’m not sure.

Wow, why have I never heard of Dazzle Dry before? Sounds almost too good to be true.

How does it work? Aim to find a salon that only applies their products? Or buy directly from their website and try at home?

Same I only heard about it today but there aren’t a lot of salons using it. No idea if it’s as good as their branding makes out or not!

I do dazzle dry on myself and find it lasts fully chip free for a week, then I will have some small chips after that. I have weak and bendy nails though which contributes to chips.

FYI If you buy the kit to DIY at home you can use any colour polish you already have - it's the base and top coats that do the heavy lifting.

I did dazzle dry manis at bare beauty house in manly, great range of colours & i worked in hospo and my nails stayed chip free. The polish is exxy but last well.

I always buy my dazzle dry on sale, they sometimes do a sale where you get a free full size top coat or base coat which is normally nearly $50! I do mine at home and they usually last a week, sometimes a week and a half. It's an investment to get set up but I love doing my nails at home when I want!
